Something I have never seen

Elisabeth Tinnon, a rookie breaststroker at U of Texas at the Big 12 champs on Friday night. At her first turn in the 100 *** she touched with both hands, and then did a flip turn (like a freestyle flip) She was not DQ'd. IT did appear that she picked up ground on the rest of the field. Has anyone seen this before.

    Larry Day flipped all three turns back in 1969 at the Michigan High School State Meet while winning the 100 fly. I assumed he did this also while swimming at the University of Michigan. Larry has long arms to help him achieve this... But breaststroke is another story. Like Wayne, I'd love to see that too.
